I like folding, it seems pretty clear to me. You're way to short to limp and try and hit a big flop and and with as many players behind you as there are, there is too great of chance of getting called to shove and try and take down the pot right here.

Fold, fold, fold.

You push ur getting called def. Your ahead of 0 hands he has, and behind about 150.

Yes you have outs, and id rather push this hand than A 3 or something, but with a limp, fold!

If you had a bigger stack I would say limp and try to see a flop. Because your stack is extremely small it's either push or fold. Based on that, there is no way you can play this hand. As eejit stated before me, you are behind most any hand the early position limper has. You are depending on the flop hitting you perfectly.

def do NOT limp with this hand, but i would personally think about 2.5-3 betting this, BUT only if your table is tight, and at a 1.00 tourney, there is no tight play, its a free for all, so id say fold and wait for high suited connectors to push or raise.

If you had a bigger stack, do NOT limp with this hand, you wont get paid off, its a hit or miss hand, you either hit big or you hit bottom pr or nothing at all, so you raise, make it look like a decent hand maybe two hi cards atleast and then you follow up with a post flop bet if its checked to you....

leave here and save your bullets, still lots of hands left.Well not lots but better than 45

I love playing small suited connectors if I can get in cheap. So early on in the first few rounds they are great. By the time everyone has a big stack and the blinds have gotten to a considerable size I tend to just fold them every time. Every once in a while you might get a cheap look from the SB and a call is obviously worth it, but don't call of your chips with them, not worth it in the end.

Push all in... lol

This late in a tourny with the blinds that high suited connectors are not worth calling....suited connectors are good to play early and middle of tournies when u have chips to play with....you don't wanan call 600 of your 2800 away tring to hit the flop with 45 suited...muck that at this point in a tourny

Size of the blinds is the deciding factor here poke.
600 which is over 25% of your stack to just get a look at the flop HOPING that nobody behind you raises which leaves you with nothing to do but fold. If you had a bigger stack Id say take a look at the flop but since you dont this is an easy fold because any push and your either drawing thin or dead. So dont risk it here.
Suited connectors are good to play early in tournaments, but when the b linds get high and the antes start you cannot incorporate it into your range of hands.
Easy fold poke.
